System overview ARTEC SYSTEM propose a non-destructive measurement system based on low field magnetic resonance technology to measure quantity of water, oil or grease, establish quality criteria and characterize porosity. Materials covered by these analysis can take the form of solids, liquids or pastes. DIASPEC is a transportable measuring instrument, ideal for rapid characterization of samples in the laboratory or quality control. The measurement and results analysis software is easily handled by non-expert operators in NMR. 1. Diagram of the equipment The general structure of the equipment is represented in the figure below.

Technical specifications Static induction of the sensor The material used for the generation of static and uniform magnetic field, required to operate the sensor, is neodymium-iron-boron. It presents a good thermal stability up to 80 ° C. In the configuration of Diaspec devices, the volume of measurement corresponds to a cylinder, with an axis perpendicular to the static field, a diameter of 18 mm and a height of 20mm. The value of the static induction (B0) is approximately 0.44 T (varies around this value, depending on the device). The inhomogeneity of the magnetic field is less than dB0/B0 = 10-4T in the measuring volume. Radiofrequency structure (RF) The radiofrequency structure, integrated inside the sensor, includes an antenna and a transmission line coupling. It generates an RF induction perpendicular to the static induction in the measuring volume. Structure geometry (Diaspec 18) Measuring tube: diameter 18mm external Radial resolution: 18mm diameter Vertical resolution: 20mm height The external metallic case of the measuring instrument is covered with an anti-corrosion coating. a) b) a) overview of equipment with sensor and spectrometer b) top view of the NMR diameter 18 mm sensor ARTEC SYSTEM SARL au cap de 75.000 euros.

A sequence is composed of the following parameters: P90 : Duration of the P90 pulse. P180 : Duration of the P180 pulse. P180 is close to 2 * P90. TACQ180 : Duration of the acquisition of a CPMG echo. TACQ90 : Duration of the acquisition of the decay of magnetization after a pulse P90 (choice FID). Frequency : Working frequency of the instrument.

Caution, is recommended for the successful completion of the calibration, using a sufficient number of scans (at least 20), a sample wet enough and low number of echoes (one hundred).
